In the spirit of the New Year and starting fresh, I’ll be sharing a very effective breathing technique which is cleansing and purifying. In fact, if practiced regularly, it is said to burn the karmas of many lives.
NOTE: It is recommended that when you practice this breathwork, you do so with an empty stomach or after eating very lightly.
It is a form of alternate nostril breathing, which has many benefits, among which are regulating the nervous system, lowering fear and anxiety, providing clarity—helping you focus on what’s important and creating a deep sense of well-being.
By consciously using different breath ratios, you can yield different effects. For example, here we will inhale for a count of one, hold the breath for a count of four and exhale for a count of two. You’ll use your right hand to alternate the breath through the left and right nostrils. The tip of the thumb can block the right nostril and either the index finger or the pinkie finger can block the left nostril.
Consult your doctor before beginning any breathwork.
